Podcasts Guidelines

A podcast is a digital recording of a voice or visual presentation that can be downloaded from the internet for playing on a personal audio or video player or on a computer.

The provider of the content makes the audio or video file available on the internet via a URL. This file is then referenced in an XML-based RSS file that contains descriptive information about the podcast, including the link to the file.

The user accesses this RSS file via their podcasting device and downloads the podcast for listening/viewing offline.
